All the products are sold and tested fit for purpose and the IP rating is set according to the design and purpose of
the luminaire, more details on IP ratings can be found under design ideas section. The weakest point is generally
the installation of the product where poor cable joints have been made which are not 100% water tight and will allow
for water penetration. There are a number of waterproof enclosures available on this site along with IP68 inline
connectors and resin gel packs to fill the junction boxes to make a watertight enclosure. Copper grease should also
be used on screws and nuts to stop them binding and ease removal at a later date when a lamp change is required it
can also provide a watertight seal.  Never use PVC cabling only use Rubber. PVC can lead to capillary action.

Lamp Colour (Kelvins)

The colour of a lamp is defined as a measurement called kelvins. A standard GLS light bulb in your house would be
2,700 kelvins which is in the warm colour spectrum and a lamp with 5,000 kelvins would be at the very cold white
spectrum.
